Canada's Hornet: Part 2

In this model, I'm going to closely follow the instructions: usually when I go off the beaten track, I end up in some form of trouble that takes a while to fix. I started the CF-18 with the cockpit, one of my favorite parts of making an aircraft. I used a toothpick, with its end trimmed to a nice point, to paint the fine details of the instruments and buttons. I then applied a decal for the screens of the HUD and instruments, a task that I was NOT looking forward to after my last, nightmarish time with decals. Happily, this time, they went on just fine (sigh of relief :P) and it looked good.
